		<description><![CDATA[Blessings on thee, little man, Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan! With thy turned-up pantaloons, And thy merry whistled tunes; With thy red lip, redder still Kissed by strawberries on the hill; With the sunshine on thy face, Through thy torn brimâ€™s jaunty grace; From my heart I give thee joy,â€” I was once a [...]]]></description>

And, from still farther off, An engine puffs sharply, Followed by the drawn-out shunting scrape of a freight train. These are the sounds that men make In the long business of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(from Summerâ€™s Last Will and Testament) Fair summer droops, droop men and beasts therefore, So fair a summer look for nevermore: All good things vanish less than in a day, Peace, plenty, pleasure, suddenly decay.
